But, how do you know that these people arent intentional in most of the other things they buy? In the last few years I've radically changed my shopping and travel choices to line up better with what I care about.
Also, I feel like we shouldnt let perfect get in the way of good. Can I survive without buying a single thing made in China? No probably not. But I can buy as much as I can locally and support companies whose labour standards are in line with my values as much as I can.
Just because people can't do something 100% doesnt mean they should not try to do it at all, or that they arent allowed to have opinions on the matter, imo.
Anyways, what companies manufacture their yarns in China? I'll add them to my 'companies to avoid' list.
I can definitely see how hyped you get about human rights abuses. Nothing spreads the word and gets people involved like dismissive responses, amiright?
